Commissioned by St.Albans Chamber Choir on the 1200th Anniversary of the foundation of St.Albans Abbey.
The text is taken from the writings of Richard of Wallingford (1291-1336), Abbot of St.Albans who is now best known for his great clock 'Albion' which showed in addition to the time and seasons, the courses of the moon and planets.
